Sometimes you don’t have to go to places for buildings, gardens or impressive art installations to enjoy Second Life. Tonight for instance, I spent more than 2 hours in an arctic Linden Ocean, spread over 3 sims, with nothing but water and icebergs in the sim called Icebay of Laptev. No games, no shops, no…

Mondays are srs bsns
Today I was in Amsterdam, the centre, for work. Not my favourite city, but oh well..sometimes one has no choice! It inspired me though, to go take a look in the Amsterdam in Second Life, which exists since 2004! It’s a nice replica and I have to admit it was kind of funny to see…
My Private Spa
After a long day of exploring (and shopping…) it is always good to come home! I like to end the days in Second Life with a bit of relaxing, sitting about and occasionally I treat myself on a sauna and long hot shower before pixelating into dust till the next login. I recently bought a…
My Cotton Blossom II
Ah yes. Since I tried the free sailboat LL gave to premiums last week, I think I am hooked on sailing. It is relaxing, sailing the Blake Sea (e.g.) and watching the sun set in the ocean, with only the sounds of the wind and the waves! How come I never did this before!? Anyway….
C.c..c..c……C O L D !
On this cold and grey day I went to work on ImperiuM Island. Time to remove the autumn trees, the leaves and get rid of the cheerful green meadows, it is December and it is supposed to be ice-cold and snowy! I found some wonderful snowy Oaks and an amazing ice-skating rink at Heart Garden…
Greeter Island & Linden Helpers
Wow, another surprise found! After my Linden Realms adventure I felt like exploring a bit. Browsing through the Destination Guide I saw a new Editor’s Pick: Greeter Island! An island filled with Linden Helpers, from 10AM till 6PM SLT, for all your questions! So there I went, curious on what this was…as I had not…
Bad Shoes & Faux Suede
Oh my….what is it with newbs and their struggle with shoes and feet? I spent only one hour in Waterhead Welcome Area on my Sunday afternoon and all I saw was people with sore feet, shoes from a decade ago – but not quite vintage – and missing footshapes… After looking at these painful feet…
Some things…
…never change! Waterhead Welcome Area, today – 8 september 2011
Imperial Autumn
Yeah I know. It is only the 1st of September and maybe we will get a bit of summer after all the rain, but I felt the urge to redecorate ImperiuM Island today and get ready for Autumn! With a bit of the mini-flu left (I apparently brought a nasty virus with me from the…
Planking in ImperiuM
I guess I had nothing better to do, on this rainy and gray Monday morning… (The Planking pose is a Platinum Hunt item from Tutti Frutti, just as the jeans I am wearing on the pics)
Combat and pictures
Last night we were delighted to see some members of ImperiuM returned to our dojo, as this is still a slow time and lots of people are on vacation. Being all a bit rusty, we did some groupfights (or FFA) just for the heck of it. Kill and be killed. Die and stand up. Good…
Mount Rushmore
In 1999 I made a wonderful road trip in the USA, from Colorado via Utah to Montana and I-don’t-know-how-many states. I have fond memories of Yellowstone NP, what an amazing place. Also, since we were driving along and it was not a fully planned trip, at some point decided it would be cool to see…
Artarra
This afternoon I visited Artarra (A) – a sim filled with flowers, trees, birds and surrounded by huge snowy mountains. A lovely place to hangout and explore. There is, besides the meadows filled with colourful flowers also a cave and a tropical-jungle-like beach. It started raining when I was there, figures! But luckily I was…
Coffee and a Croissant, please
Breakfast is my favourite meal of the day. It may be because I always wake up hungry… Since the summer in Holland is more than sad (it feels like it’s October already) I have not had the chance yet to have my coffee and croissant outside in the morning sun. I wonder if this is…
Marathon Caye – Wilderness
My two weeks vacation aka Annual Leave has started…it’s a bit weird feeling, and probably needs to sink in yet – it’s my first 2-weeks off in 3 or maybe 4 years! Since the summer in Holland is more than lousy so far, rain 24/7 and some more rain…I took a little break in Second…
The Pixel Bean Coffeehouse
Last night, just before I was going to try to get some dinner (I still can’t chew without pain, so I am not looking forwards to eating..), I got an IM from Don. He and his friends were sitting and chatting in their hangout ‘The Pixel Bean Coffeehouse’ and listening to Amy Winehouse songs. If…
